IRB – Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (Autor)
In a 2 July 1996 telephone interview, an
official at the Ethiopian Association in Toronto calculated that
the Ethiopian calendar date of 30/02/1987 corresponded to the
Gregorian (Western) calendar date of 10 November 1994. This
conversion date was corroborated in a 3 July 1996 telephone
interview with an official at the Ethiopian Community Association
of Ottawa-Carleton.
For additional information on converting
dates from the Ethiopian calendar to the Gregorian calendar, please

This Response was prepared after
researching publicly accessible information currently available to
the DIRB within time constraints. This Response is not, and does
not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular
claim to refugee status or asylum.
